Lambda-Skip Connections: the architectural component that prevents Rank Collapse

ICLR 2025poster

Rank collapse, a phenomenon where embedding vectors in sequence models rapidly converge to a uniform token or equilibrium state, has recently gained at- tention in the deep learning literature. This phenomenon leads to reduced expres- sivity and potential training instabilities due to vanishing grad…

Understanding the Differences in Foundation Models: Attention, State Space Models, and Recurrent Neural Networks

NeurIPS 2024poster

Softmax attention is the principle backbone of foundation models for various artificial intelligence applications, yet its quadratic complexity in sequence length can limit its inference throughput in long-context settings. To address this challenge, alternative architectures such as linear attentio…

Chronos and CRS: Design of a miniature car-like robot and a software framework for single and multi-agent robotics and control

ICRA 2023poster

From both an educational and research point of view, experiments on hardware are a key aspect of robotics and control. In the last decade, many open-source hardware and software frameworks for wheeled robots have been presented, mainly in the form of unicycles and car-like robots, with the goal of m…

Design, Optimal Guidance and Control of a Low-cost Re-usable Electric Model Rocket

IROS 2021poster

In the last decade, autonomous vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) vehicles have become increasingly important as they lower mission costs thanks to their re-usability. However, their development is complex, rendering even the basic experimental validation of the required advanced guidance and cont…
